I guess going from a minute loads for rainbow six siege pissing everyone off to instant isnt good, or 2 minute Arma loading times to 10 seconds isnt useful?

when you want more than your windows on it :D ? yes i know that you can put much on it but when you want to put games on it it soon will be full.

 

and even if it cost 100 than you save the money and buy it later :D

you can buy something like this for 40$

On that you install your OS...your programs...firefox, winzip, winrar, etc. all your drivers...nvidia experience, msi afterburner, EVERYTHING other than your games...i tell you, it will make your life a lot easier...40$...well worth it...you have to be masochist not to get one IMHO.

OP is the guy that buys a new Corvette, then wants to take it to the automatic car wash, run 87 octane, and buy whatever tires are the cheapest.

A 120Gb ssd is cheap and the best purchase for the money. You put the OS and 1-2 games you are currently playing, the difference is HUGE.

 

Fo4 load times got 4x faster, witcher 3 load times got 2.5x faster... Its game changing. I will NEVER get a pc without a ssd in the future.

Ultra is stupid. ALWAYS.

its a lot easier to upgrade a GPU compared to migrating an OS onto an SSD. Especially since SSDs are cheap as hell these days even for a 128GB boot drive
